To me the 80s were all about Stephen King. #publishedinthe80s #junebookbugs

"It seems safe to forecast that, with or without the valuable work represented here, The Great Gatsby and deserving readers will always find each other. And the discovery must be a private act" M.B. ❤️❤️❤️

My 1989 edition of this traveled from one great library and came to another.. mine. ?I've paired it with my 1984 Penguin edition of the Great Gatsby. ?

ValerieAndBooks Very cool! Wonder if they thought, "oh well, he was a Princeton man" when discharging the book ? 7y

It's Willow, here, that was #publishedinthe80s, but the trilogy inspired by it is also worth a read, so I included it. I practically grew up on this movie, so it's no surprise I snapped up the trilogy when I discovered it! #junebookbugs

Paris Trout: A Novel | Pete Dexter
post image

PARIS TROUT, the National Book Award Winner for Fiction in 1988, is a flawless work. An arrogant solitary man who abuses his wife both psychologically and physically, he commits a crime which sends reverberations throughout the community. Paris‘ mental state deteriorates as he fights against being held accountable for his senseless actions. A feeling of doom seeps into the story and builds until the fateful ending. #PublishedInThe80s #JuneBookBugs
